Happy Boxing Day!

Hope you had a great Christmas Day! I had so much fun eating, playing games and chatting to friends and family! It feels like so much has happened in the last couple of days; friends getting engaged and friends announcing their pregnancies etc. really cool, positive time of the year. This poster sums it all up! Can't wait for 2013, i believe that it will be the best year ever!

I ♥ DIY No.6

I really had high hopes for myself when I first started the blog but have failed miserably! There are so many projects that I was inspired by and wanted to do and I have to admit that I haven't done almost any. One of my resolutions for next year is to be more creative and definitely try new projects.

Have a great week.
